Patent EP-0817555-A3 (EP)
Inventor: EBERHARDT ANTHONY N
IPC: F04D29/58
Filed: 1997-06-18
Abstract: An electrical assembly that allows a plurality of
electronic assemblies to be cooled by a number of fans (30).
The assembly includes a housing (12) which has a plenum
chamber (20) that is located between a rack chamber (22) and a
fan chamber (26). The rack chamber (22) contains a plurality of
electronic assemblies such as hard disk drives (14). The
fan chamber (26) contains a plurality of individual fans (30).
The fans (30) induce an air flow from the rack chamber (22) to
the fan chamber (26) through the plenum chamber (20). The plenum
chamber (20) provides a uniform pressure that induces an
equal flow rate across each disk drive (14) in the rack
chamber (22). The fans (30) are controlled by a control circuit
which can detect the failure of one fan and increase
the speed of the remaining fans to maintain the plenum
chamber pressure. The constant plenum chamber pressure
insures an equal flowrate across each disk drive (14) even
when one of the fans (30) fails.

Abstract: Nonmetallic materials (18, 28) are welded without solder or adhesive by a
laser (202) and preferably fiber optics (204) that direct laser light (220)
through one of the materials (18) to create a seam weld. Through use of
fiber optics the beam is optimally (Fig. 11) converted to heat, avoiding weld
flaws due to underheating and material damage due to overheating.
Welding is rapid and reproducible even for the smallest of contact
geometries, achieving for example strong solderless gold-to-gold compression
laser welding of a silicon substrate (28) to a polymeric ( e. g.  polyimide) flex
circuit tape (18), without tape damage. The bond can be between a straight
gold-bond line (210, Figs. 20-22[C]), or complex weld seam pattern (210,
Figs. 17-19[C]), on the tape and a mating gold bond line or pattern (Figs.
17-22[A]) 208 on a semiconductor chip (28). In an inkjet printhead the
result is to avoid delamination and nozzle skewing, associated in other
methods with adhesive curing. Reduced skew provides less dot-placement
error and thus better print quality. Better head configuration facilitates
fixing a nozzle member to the substrate, and increasing nozzle area stiffness,
nozzle camber angle and directionality, and substrate-to-tape bond
strength-reducing deformation and so consistently raising ink refill speeds,
and reducing ink trajectory errors and delamination. In particular
embodiments, increased tolerance to aggressive solvents in inks, and more
consistent chamber geometry, result in better drop-volume control, better
pen quality, repeatability and reliability; and cutting down of process steps,
processing time, cost, and in-process handling. These in turn provide ease
of assembly, higher yields and reliability, ease of nozzle serviceability, and
overall material and manufacturing cost reduction.

Abstract: Scanning lines decimated from an interlaced image
signal are interpolated to convert the interlaced image
signal into a first progressive image signal. The first
progressive image signal is sub-sampled in a vertical
direction to obtain a second progressive image signal with
scanning lines less than scanning lines of the first
progressive image signal. And, the second progressive image
signal is coded to obtain a compressed code train (bit
stream). The compressed code train can be stored in a
storage medium. The code train is decoded to reproduce the
second progressive image signal. And, an image format of
the second progressive image signal is converted in a
vertical direction into another format in which scanning
lines are decimated to reproduce the interlaced image
signal.

Abstract: When printing is performed by ejecting
respective inks of black and cyan and a processing
liquid, an OR data (305) and an AND data (306) are
derived from an extracted data (303) for the
processing liquid derived from an ejection data
(301) of the black ink and an extracted data (304)
for the processing liquid derived from an ejection
data (302) for the cyan ink. An OR data (308) of the
OR data (305) and data (307) derived by shifting the
AND data (306) for one pixel, is taken as an
ejection data for the processing liquid. By this,
for the pixel, on which black and cyan are ejected
in overlapping manner as represented by the AND data
(306), the processing liquid is further ejected on a
pixel adjacent thereto. Thus, the processing liquid
in an amount corresponding to an ink ejection amount
can be ejected to provide sufficient water-resistance.

Abstract: A technique is provided for enabling an index to
data recorded in a recording medium such as a cassette to
be read out without mounting the recording medium on a
reproduction apparatus to reproduce the data. When a
cassette (100) is inserted into a compartment in a VTR
(41), a switch in the VTR is pushed by a case of the
cassette, detecting the insertion of the cassette into
the compartment. At that time, a signal indicating the
insertion of the cassette into the compartment is
supplied to a microcomputer from the switch. Notified by
the signal, the microcomputer issues a command to a
reader/writer, requesting the reader/writer to read out
information on data from a memory card mounted on the
cassette for recording the data through an antenna. With
the cassette located outside the compartment, on the
other hand, the microcomputer issues a command to a
reader/writer, requesting the reader/writer to read out
the information from the memory card through another
antenna.

Abstract: Zum elektrischen Verbinden einer Leiterplattenanschlußzone mit einem
metallischen Gehäuseteil, insbesondere zum elektrischen Masse-Anschluß
werden meist kraftschlüssige Verbindungen, wie Verschrauben oder Nieten,
der Leiterplatte direkt mit dem Gehäuseteil vorgesehen. Da jedoch die
Leiterplatten meist aus Kunststoff bestehen und den Kräften an der
kraftschlüssigen Verbindungen nachgeben, kann es insbesondere auch im
Alterungsprozeß zu einem Lösen der elektrischen Verbindung kommen. Um
dies zu verhindern, wird ein Verbindungselement, bestehend aus einer
Grundfläche mit einer Öffnung für das Einbringen der kraftschlüssigen
Verbindung zum Gehäuseteil hin sowie mindestens einem Kontaktstift an
der Grundfläche vorgesehen, wobei der Kontaktstift die Verbindung zur
Leiterplattenanschlußzone herstellt. Die Grundfläche ist dabei unempfindlich
gegen mechanische Belastungen an der kraftschlüssigen Verbindung
und kann diese gleichmäßig verteilen. Die elektrische Verbindung wird
sichergestellt und die Fertigung vereinfacht.

Abstract: An alarm system which incorporates a plurality of highly sensitive, early
warning, smoke detectors (22) incorporates functionality for distinguishing
between detector signals in response to ambient smoke and detector signals in
response to the presence of non-smoke, fibrous materials. Detectors (22) are
spatially arranged in predetermined regions. Information concerning the
arrangement of detectors is stored in a common control unit. Additionally, a
performance history for each of the detectors is also stored in the control unit
(12). If one of the detectors exhibits a relatively large output which is large
enough to indicate a possible fire, a previously stored history from the outputs
of that detector is analyzed. If the previously stored history indicates a fire
related profile, such as a relatively gradual increase in smoke level over a period
of time, the signal from that detector is regarded as being indicative of smoke
and an alarm is indicated. If the signal from the detector shows a relatively fast
increase, from a very low level to an alarm level in a short period of time,
fibrous material may have entered the detector. The output from at least one
other detector in the same region is analyzed. If the second detector confirms the
presence of smoke, at least the first detector is regarded as indicating an alarm
condition. If the second detector does not indicate the presence of smoke, even a
very low level of smoke, the output from the first detector is regarded as being
due to a non-smoke condition, such as an intrusive fibrous material. The control
unit indicates the presence of a trouble or maintenance condition with respect to
that detector.
